What is heaven?

What does heaven have to do with our lives here and now on earth?
Jim Paul will explore the biblical relationship of heaven and earth and see that heaven isn’t just about the future but a reality that is breaking into our lives here and now on earth.
Jim is director of the English L'Abri Fellowship, a community-based apologetics ministry which gives people the space, time and resources to find answers to their questions about the truth and relevance of Christian faith. He is author of What On Earth is Heaven? (IVP, 2021).

Questioning Witnesses

What can we learn from Jesus about how we can be good witnesses to his love, grace and mercy?
Can coaching techniques help us break down barriers raised around younger generations of those who need to hear about Jesus?

Martin has been an itinerant evangelist with the Association of Evangelists (aofe.org.uk) for the last fourteen years. He travels throughout the UK with two aims: to help equip Christians to share and defend the Gospel naturally; and to help those who don’t yet know Jesus hear the life-transforming Good News. He loves chatting about Jesus – be it at a university or church mission week, or over a burger at McDonald’s! He is married to Claire and lives by the sea on the south coast with his two children.

One Challenge

for every disciple of Jesus Christ

that everyone will hear the Gospel.

The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it. (Psalm 24:1 NIV)

Churches: one in heart, mind and purpose.

We discover

Jesus said the Father is always at work. So that we may join in, we want to find out where and how.

We share

God is at work around the world. We are thrilled when people see this, perhaps for the first time.

We involve

We delight in people taking Jesus Christ's Great Commission seriously, by going, praying or giving.
